You can relax knowing that Mercury retrograde ends on Thursday, April 25, paving the way for healing from any retrograde-induced misunderstandings, and allowing relationships to mend and strengthen if any cringe-worthy moments occurred. Mercury retrogrades can be annoying, but it’s rare that any truly irreversible mishaps happen. Plus, shortly after, on Monday, April 29, Venus, your ruling planet, will enter Taurus (which, as you may remember, is also ruled by Venus, so the planet of love, beauty, and cash is quite happy to be home). This transit not only continues to bless your love life but also reinforces the delightful power of vanity. Allow yourself to enjoy a Spring glow-up guilt-free.
Finally, the month comes to a close with Mars, the warrior planet, moving into its home sign of Aries on Tuesday, April 30. This planetary move calls you to assert yourself, particularly in professional realms. Mercury is direct; Venus, ruler of money, is happy; and now Mars is aligning to help you fight for your needs. While asking for what you want — whether it’s an extension on deadline, more money, or better work/life balance — can be daunting, the end of April is an ideal time to stand up for your needs as the stars are on your side. You’ve got this, Libra, and we’ll see you in May.
